THIS IS THE MOST FUN I'VE HAD PLAYING A GRAPPLER! (Ft.JMCrofts)

Justin Wong discovers unexpected enjoyment playing Zangief in Marvel vs Capcom 2, a character he normally avoids. Known for his distaste toward grapplers, Wong embraces the grappler role here and faces off against JMCrofts, who also specializes with Zangief. The matchup becomes a personal test—two dedicated Zangief players exploring what makes the character work in this game's fast-paced environment. Rather than relying on the typical spacing and footsies that dominate competitive play, both competitors lean into Zangief's pressure tools and grab-heavy gameplan. The video captures Wong's genuine enthusiasm for a character type he'd written off, revealing how player chemistry and head-to-head competition can shift perspective on unpopular picks. This clash showcases how grapplers function within Marvel vs Capcom 2's unique systems and what separates a casual exploration from serious matchup study.
